Approximate 5-year-old male currently located in IN. 
Link to the ABMR Adoption Application: https://malinoisrescue.org/forms/form?formid=6574

He LOVES people. New people, older people,  men,  women,  kids,  everyone.

With a head halter,  he is the easiest dog to walk! He is also walking nicely on a slip lead.

Mash is mostly house trained when in his living area.  He doesn't have full run of the house, and he has only had a few accidents (urine) when he first arrived. 

His activity level  around people is very high. He nearly vibrates! By himself,  he settles nicely with a toy. During playtime, Mash loves to fetch or flip into a Belgian turnover for belly rubs. Mash loves toys and is very gentle with them, definitely an oversized lap dog.  

During training time, he is working on crate, but he is great in the xpen. Obedience training is progressing.  He sits very nicely and is working on the down command.

His exercise needs are moderate to high. He is vocal,  a boredom barker. Mash is working on controlling this and developing his house manners. 

Mash is an extremely playful, affectionate,  goofy Malinois.  He clacks sometimes and is slightly soft in temperament. Though Mash was left in a dump to survive under a couch with bullet wounds and heartworms, he has not condemned people. He knows there are good humans who are capable of loving him the way he loves them. 

Are you ready for your heart to be stolen by a Malinois? Are you looking for a Mal who is ready to take on life's adventures with his forever human? Hiking, running, and everything the great outdoors has to offer? If so, Mash is the man for you! 

Note: Mash is good with other high energy dogs, but he is not recommended for older dogs or small dogs. He may also knock over a young child or elderly person due to his enthusiasm for life!

ABMR thanks you for taking the time to look at our malinois available for adoption.
